My son asked me to make him an alfredo sauce for pasta and I tried this one. I loved it and I don't like cream sauces. My hubby wants me to cut down on the cream cheese next time, he's not a big cream cheese lover so I'll adjust it for him but I like it just the way it is. Nice and easy thanks. -
Love this sauce! I can see adding spinach to the sauce as well. I made it & poured over Chicken/ mozzarella tortellini. Will make it again.
